S Luzzani, and A Valadè, and P Olivani, and N Roberto, and F Chiara

Fertility of operated monolateral Cryptorchides has been evaluated in a long term follow up comparing the patients who underwent orchidopexy with patients who underwent orchiectomy. From our experience, as well as from various Author's reports, patients who underwent orchiectomy demonstrated a two fold of fertility compared to the group who underwent orchidopexy.
